[Question - Other] What kind of medical institutions can administer COVID-19 vaccine and what conditions need to be met?
Is there any kind of regulation for what institutions can administer the COVID-19 vaccines?
I'm very curious as to 1. What "medical" institution (hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, nursing homes, etc) are allowed to administer the COVID-19 vaccines.
- I would also like to know what kind of conditions/standards an institution would need to meet in order to be able to give these vaccines.
For these questions, I am asking specifically for the situation in the US or UK.
Thank you.
[Question - Insurance] Changing Healthcare Plans After Birth Of Child
I'm hoping someone here can help me with this. Please let me know if this is better posted somewhere else!
I have United Healthcare through my job. Currently married with no children. During pregnancy, my husband and I opted for the more expensive Choice Plus plan, to reduce the out of pocket expenses of prenatal care and birth by paying more each paycheck, just in case I experience a medical emergency.
The family plan for this insurance is an INSANE increase. I would rather pay less out of paycheck and more at appointments with how insane the increase is. I would like to downgrade at our child's birth to their other plan (Choice) when we change to the family plan, assuming baby is healthy.
1) can I do this?
2) since adding baby is retroactive to his birth, would this impact the insurance I had during the birthing process/birth/postpartum hospital stay for myself? If so, I think we'd have to eat these costs and wait until open enrollment, otherwise the increase we've been paying isn't really worth it.
Thank you!
[Discussion] Why is it illegal for suicidal people to donate plasma?
Today at the plasma center I was banned from donating because the physician lady just had to ask me about my suicide history and I just had to answer honestly. There is an FDA regulation that bans me from donating plasma because I attempted it a few years ago. How the fuck was I supposed to know about this or predict this? My blood passed all the tests & I was ready to donate but in the last screening she asked me about my mental health. Now I actually do feel like shooting myself. I was gonna get 100 today for my donation but me telling the truth shot it down. Why should people with suicide thoughts be banned from making money or donating plasma?
